Hello,

as already mentioned by Manish
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2008-August/002497.html
physical_arch() is searching for the string to match "arm", but
various ARM CPUs have additional letters to specify their features.
Should all these types be listed in arches[] or is it simplier to have
ARM speciifc physical_arch() that is just looking for the substring
"arm" in uname? What do you think about this?

Best regards,
Yegor
